Twinks At Play is still fairly new to the twink scene but its got off to a good start. The content count may be limited but all the videos and images are within the promised niche. Its quite a simple one: solos, couples or groups of young guys get it together and appear in exclusive movies and galleries with hardcore sucking and fucking scenes in various locations. There are downloads and streams available and a few minor extras but this is not yet what you would call a complete site.
The content at Twinks At Play is divided into two areas and two areas only. You have Videos and Pictures. Content started to be added in October 2008 and since then the videos have been coming on a weekly basis, which is good news. The image galleries all seemed to have gone up on the same day in October and there has been nothing new since.
All the update news is contained on the home page along with what is coming next and you can see from this that Twinks At Play is serious about its update schedule. New episodes are featured with their dates and a sample pic and title so thats all fairly straightforward but useful to know. The top menu takes you to the other two areas:
Twinks At Play Videos contained 40 scenes when I was there. The most recent was a fuck scene and the oldest was a suck-and-fuck with two more sexy twinks. In between were solos, toy play, shaving, sling and outdoor scenes to rival some of the more established competitors. The boys are great, they are fresh and new and there was no one I recognised in here. The movies are available in three formats, thats a WMV and a Quicktime download where the transfer rate is around 75kbps, but some files are over 300 Mbs, so waiting time is a factor here. And the streaming version is in a decent sized Flash player where the quality is good.
In the Twinks At Play photos area you get titles of photo sets the same as you do the videos; Blake and Joey, Twinktime Fun, updated for example. These 10 galleries contained around 50 pics each on average and these were video caps at 640 x 480. The lack of quality here was a shame as there are some great boys to view and some very nice bods and hot sex, its just hard to catch it all when the action is blurred and the images grainy.
But the bottom line on the content is that it is exclusive and it is well made, video caps aside. The scenarios are already varied and the boys are exactly what you want from a twink site. Its also easy to view as long as you dont mind slow downloads, but at least they are not DRM protected.
With only two areas to explore Twinks At Play is easy to navigate. Check the home page for the upload dates and the coming soon news (always good to see that well done guys) and then choose where you are going from the simple top menu. The videos are arranged over index pages which are clearly numbered and each one opens to its own viewing page. From here you simply download or click the stream link. You can rate these movies, and the galleries, from one to five and the top rated ones appear on the home page.
It would be easy to say what is missing from Twinks At Play so I will. A model index would be good, as would more information about the boys in the movies and galleries. Some stats and a little introduction to each scene and a place for members to put comments with videos would make us feel more involved. (You can comment on the photos though.) Otherwise the site becomes simply a place to go to collect a few more videos. There is a search box at the very bottom of the home page; if this was higher up and if there were other search options (age, race etc.) it would also make the site more interactive. Galleries do come with slideshows and there is a favourites function so you can add things to your favourites area, but then there is no way of actually finding this area, which is a bit odd. And some more news, or a blog, would also be fun. Once you have explored the vids and pics there is really very little else to do and youll find yourself rummaging around the home page in the hope of finding something else.
Its simple and straightforward and it contains exclusive twinks in well made videos. There are not many of them as yet but what you have is easy to access, horny to view and well made. Some more interactive options and possibly some news and extras would go a long way to making what is a basic twink site into something more enjoyable. The sexy boys and the good quality is there, we just need that something extra.
